The MissisSippi Agricultural College.

Il. NJ. f., statr correspondent Of the NeWs
and Courier furnishes most reatahle account
of the recent commencement in the Asricul-
tural and Mechanical College of Mississippi.
Often newspaper correspondents substitute
comment for facts, but we really wish that
this correspondent had given little more oi
!, lis impressions. In Abbevile county the in
dustrial system has been tried for hundred
years, and in each instance the effort has re-
suited in absolute and utter failure. The Due
West Male College was first organized MS
manual labor school, but the manu- labor
feature was soon abandoned. At tho begin
ming of the century the princcly estate
of DR.. Della Howe was willcd for that nur-
pose. 1t has failed, and its treasure Is now
unutilized. Fifty years or more ago the cox
csbury Conference school was established on
the same plan of working several hours each
day on the farm. The hours for labor were
constantly diminished until the system was
abandoned.
The question with us now is, can we at this
day succeed In establishing school on the
plan that has SO often proved failure IN the
past. We do not believe 1t possible. While
the Necs and Curriers' report is undoubtedly
q plain, unvarniShcd statement Of interesting
facts. VIC would like to know something of the
reporter's conclusions. We shall look with
some degree of interest to see DR.. Grier's re-
mort.
